strangest place was a hotel minibar, inside a sock. it survived and i am still proud of it, not advice obviously

we have a running joke about the fridge and a serious pinned table about the fridge, and both are load bearing

the smugness is the prize

somebody wrote mcg instead of mg again, do we have a counter for that

somebody will correct the mcg thing before i finish typing this and honestly good

CC

the fridge is called colin and colin has never once let me down
i checked the milk with the vial thermometer and now i am cross about the milk

CC

the cat took out a tray. two survived. i have named them
the dog has learned the fridge sound and is furious every single week that it is not for him

OW

update on the earlier thing alcohol free lager has got genuinely good, which is the single most useful thing i have learned in here, i think

WV

raining here too. it has been raining here since approximately the founding of this channel

i miss coffee more than beer, and the coffee is still there, it just does not like me anymore

sharps bin by the kettle

HH

the sharps bin lives next to the kettle and visitors have opinions about it

LN

the fridge thermometer has become a personality trait and i am at peace with that

YV

slightly off topic but it is 4 degrees and horizontal out there, which is at least good weather for a parcel

i told my mother it was for the cat. the cat is fine and my mother is confused, i could be wrong

i drink fizzy water with a lime in it and pretend, and it is fine, mostly

CC

i own four thermometers and i can explain three of them, ask me again in a month

YV

we are three years into the standing bet and the goalposts have moved twice

the jewellery scale gets used for coffee beans more than anything else and it was still a good purchase, thats just me

HH

coming back after 14 months, whats the current in joke, i have lost track completely
we absolutely counted the cat incident as a cold chain event and the pinned table has a footnote about it

WV

coming back to this the smugness is the prize. there has never been another prize

HH

i have the spreadsheet nobody asked for, it has seven tabs, and one of them is called cats
